In what part of the novel are you speaking?
According to "The Veldt" by Ray BradBury...
Answer to the First Question: Assuming the inflated value of $9 still applies to the time of this answer, today the Happylife Home System would have a price of $270,000 dollars, since:
30,000 x 9 = 270,000
Answer to the Second Question: There would be a market for this system as long as the governments approve of the risks implicated.
Anyone aware of the system's capabilites would not think twice about purchasing one - provided they could afford it -. The fact that a machine could do any chore of daily life, as well as provide simulated entertainment with no boundaries is simply irresistible to anyone. <u>The benefits are worth the price.</u>
The customers would not worry about the dangers at first; they would consider themselves responsible enough to manage a balanced life of luxuries.

Answer:
The correct answer is actually the best astronauts in the world.
Explanation:
An object complement follows a direct object with the purpose of renaming it or stating what it has become. Certain verbs commonly attract object complements, such as to consider, to call, to to create, to make, etc. <u>It is important to remember that the object complement can be a noun, a pronoun, an adjective, or a </u><u>phrase</u><u>.</u> Study the example below:
- We consider them <u>intelligent</u>.
"Them" is the direct object of "consider". It is followed by the adjective "intelligent", which functions as the object complement. Notice that the sentence we are supposed to analyze is similar:
- We consider them <u>the best astronauts in the world</u>.
This time, the object "them" has a whole phrase as its complement, "the best astronauts in the world". It's as if we are answering a question about the object. For the first sentence, what do we consider them? Intelligent. For the second one, what do we consider them? The best astronauts in the world.
